Resumo

The objective of this study is to investigate the determinants of trade credit supply by Brazilian publicly traded companies between the years of 2005 and 2008. International literature (both theoretical and empirical) documents that the main determinants of trade credit supply are the size of the firm and the size of its debt. Both indicate that the availability of resources to the firm is an important factor for the supply of trade credit. In addition the literature confirms strategic uses of trade credit such as those for price discrimination purposes. The results obtained using a sample consisted of 157 Brazilian companies do not support the former hypotheses but they confirm the supply of trade credit as a strategic tool for the firms. Additionally we observed a significant decrease in trade credit supply in 2008, the year in which a severe international financial crisis took place.
